    Nitrate cure replacement

    I was just reading through a science paper on NATPRE (Trademarked in Spain) which uses the same plant based polyphenol. They compare it in the write up with nitrite and nitrate. Here is a link https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0963996926001109

    Smoking to below FDA approved temps.

    You can start out with higher temps in the 140’s but the sausage will cook faster and give you less time in smoke. There are many ways to or different processes to hot smoke sausage successfully. Finding that process that works for you and your set up is a must. Don’t remove sausage from the...

    Smoking to below FDA approved temps.

    Before you go, if you use a standard ramp scale of time and temp increase you should have no problem finishing sausage in 5 hours or less assuming you know the actual pit temp with an independent thermometer probe.

    Smoking to below FDA approved temps.

    Roll your own dice there Bud. You seem to not understand that temperature between 90F and 129F is the bacteria playground, also the warmer it gets up to 130 the bacteria multiply at a break neck speed. Your main problem in this scenario is the hold time in smoker in that temp range. This is why...

    LEM Package Sausage Mix - Measurements

    Doing the math, 9g per pound is very close for either package. It’s a good place to start with a fry test and go from there.

    Its Cold Inside

    We have H2O radiant infloor and under floor heat with a mix of tile, hardwood and carpet. Floors are toasty heck even the toilets are warm. After being out all day in the cold and come home take your boots off and cold feet hit warm tile, it’s amazingly comfortable.

    What rub do you use on hot smoked bacon (pork belly)?

    Not a fan of cayenne either, but as a close replacement I use Chile de Arbol which has an incredible true Chile flavor and is just slightly hotter than cayenne. If you get some good Hatch hot red powder it’s delicious too but not as Spivey as the Arbol.

    Heating Element/Temp Controller for DIY Smoke House

    Pretty sure you are going to need 220v and 2 elements to heat that size smokehouse with electric. Mine is 3x3x7’ and is why I chose propane.
